Comments:

Garmin got the course about 2160 meters longer than standard 2000. It seems that overall swim times were kind of slow, perhaps representing that distance.

I met the waves ahead at midway, and struggled to get through them, slowed me down a little bit, lost some momentum.

Everything was average with this swim, since the last time that I swam was the OIympic last month and the time before that was the Mountain Man 70.3 in Aug. I struggled a bit, but still got out at 10th in AG.

Comments:

The time above reflects what my finish time would have been if I had continued to ride.

I was on pace at 24.7mph avg. up to the time that my rear tube and tire burst apart. I don't know if I hit an object or what.

It was just before mile 27. My race was over at that point, packed it up and walked back to turn in my timing chip. I didn't have any spares on me, and refused tech help later on.

On target for new PR, but would have been off my 2:15 goal.

Avg. power was at 289 watts
NP was at 304 watts

Event comments:

This race was awesome and the Lifetime improved the course immensely. THANK YOU!!!

I was on target to finish at 4 hr 28 to 29 min....way off my goal of 4:25... but I would have won 1st place in AG and be the defending Lifetime Point Series Champion.

This hurt and sucks.
